Hae Joo shook her head.
Just thinking about Kyung Ae gave her goosebumps and annoyed her.
“Thank you for coming today. But.”
“Hmm?”
“Enough. I don’t want to talk about it.”
Hae Joo felt depressed at the thought of facing Jin Han in the future.
Her relationship with Do Jun was so bad that it wasn’t working out in the middle.
“Understand me.”
“Why?”
“I’ve never broken a promise with you. And girls like Hong Yun Ji only try to win with words.”
“Quite knowledgeable for someone who has experienced many women.”
“Don’t be sarcastic like them. Those kinds of girls just make me sick.”
Hae Joo, who had been looking out the window, glared at him.
Do Jun wasn’t just talking.
“You broke the promise.”
“When?”
“You said you wouldn’t divorce.”
“I never gave a definitive answer in the first place.”
“Is this going to continue?”
“Tell me if a better man than me appears.”
“Appears?”
“I’ll kill him.”
Hae Joo was speechless.
The relationship, which had not begun with a clear contract from the beginning, was a mess.
“The only official physical contact I allowed is holding hands.”
“Why should it be that way?”
“Because it has to be.”
“So why?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know?”
“Yes.”
“Do not kiss without permission!”
“It was just a brush of the lips.”
“Don’t argue.”
“It was good.”
“Are you crazy?”
Hae Joo’s face hardened.
She vividly recalled Do Jun’s lips touching hers at the party.
Once again, her face flushed. Despite turning on the air conditioner in the car, the heat rose and soon she was sweating.
“Was it that bad with me?”
Do Jun’s action was for show.
The cold sensation she felt as their lips touched made Hae Joo’s spirit cold.
The feeling of being consumed in front of people.
Her very first experience of this feeling was very immature to Hae Joo.
“You should not have done that in that place, even for my sake.”
“It’s hard.”
Hae Joo couldn’t control her sinking heart.
Others were living in a world where they could spend the night with a partner.
But she didn’t know why she kept feeling down.
“Manager Song, pull over.”
It was just before leaving Seoul.
When the car stopped at the side of the road, Do Jun got out of the back seat.
“I will drive, you can go home now.”
“Are you sure?”
“I didn’t drink.”
“I see.”
“You look very tired. Good work and see you on Monday.”
Manager Song, who had taken out his luggage from the trunk, took a taxi and left first.
When Do Jun sat in the driver’s seat, Hae Joo also came to the passenger’s seat.
The car began to drive on the darkened road. His face was not good as he just looked ahead and held the wheel.
‘Did I go too far?’
It seemed that she had hurt Do Jun’s pride.
Do Jun had kissed Hae Joo instead of arguing with Yun Ji.
Suddenly, it occurred to her that Do Jun was great but also frightening. It meant that his rationality was still intact even at the moment of the kiss.
“I’m sorry for being irritated. I was surprised because I was unprepared…”
By then, the car had arrived in front of the house.
There was no reply from Do Jun until they entered the garage. He then lifted his narrow eyes.
“Give me another chance.”
“Pardon?”
“Let’s do it right this time.”
It wasn’t over yet.
It was just the beginning for him.

When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
Trigger warning: All men in this novel are yandere style.
